![]() Many people will understand the expression, "Having to learn the hard way", or they went to the "School of Hard Knocks". Learning life lessons through poor decisions, difficulty and stress, is not the ideal pattern of life. One may hope to live a life where adversity does not exist and that life is smooth sailing in a Caribbean paradise. Although, "hard knocks" is difficult, it is only effective if the lesson is learned. We all know history repeats itself, but hopefully poor decision making will not. For many, unfortunately, people only give one chance and if a mistake is made or mistakes are made, they are written off, ignored, or discredited. Value is essential between individuals. It is more than a perception. It is enveloped in every part of life. Perfection is not realistic or demanding perfection in ones expectations of someone else. One of the most needed items with family, relationships, friendships, and working relationships is three words, forgiveness, and try again, or do over. Allow mistakes to happen and for learning to transpire so an action can be learned and not condemned as to devalue someone. Love forgives, love builds up, love enables, and a band of thread is much harder to break than a single thread or piece of rope. Even in the darkest of night, stars are always present and then the sun rises.
